Composed by Peggy Carter. Children,Contemporary,Instructional,March,Patriotic. Score. 8 pages. Peggy Carter #1044824. Published by Peggy Carter (A0.1466214).Memorial Day March- Primer Level (or early Level 1) piano students. The right Hand is in the D (minor) 5-finger position, Left Hand is in the Middle C position. A "Warm-up" exercise reinforces the right-hand D position and the left-hand Middle C position—there's also, a “Push-Up” exercise to strengthen the 4th finger of each hand.
This patriotic march uses half notes, quarter notes, 8th notes, and quarter rests and it includes dynamic contrast as the melody emerges, shared between both hands. The arrangement includes ascending and descending steps and skips with contrasting legato and staccato techniques in an altogether exciting marcato style. Original lyrics can be used to help with memorization. This march would be a great addition to the end-of-year piano recital or even a piano competition.
Merry Go Round is also Primer or Early Level 1. In Middle-C hand position the gentle Waltz Time (3/4) brilliantly compliments the March and offers dynamic contrast and staccato technique. Students will enjoy the parallel motion contrasted to contrary motion with moving 8th notes in one hand against dotted half notes in the other hand. This arrangement invites a focus on musical expression that won't go unnoticed in a recital or contest setting.
